Derek Austin Cornelius (born 25 November 1997) is a Canadian professional soccer player who plays as a centre-back for Ligue 1 club Marseille and the Canada national team.

Early life

Cornelius was born in Ajax, Ontario to a Barbadian father and a Jamaican mother.[2] Cornelius started playing when he was selected as a younger player for the 1996 House League All-Star team.[3] He was then selected by the Ajax Thunder under-8 team at six years old.[3] In the season after that, he was the Unionville Milliken Challenge Cup Champions Most Valuable Player.[3] At the U11 level, he won the C.O.V.I. Championship and was proclaimed the Most Valuable Player.[3]

In 2012, he played in the Oviedo Cup with PFC CSKA Moscow in Spain, then he played in the Milk Cup by CSKA Moscow in Northern Ireland where he led the team scoring four goals in the tournament. He ended that year by being invited to the CSKA Moscow Reserve Camp and by playing in the U21 Provincial and Men's Regional leagues, scoring 22 goals in 30 games.[3]

In 2013, he was selected for the Canada national under-17 team for camp in Florida and Costa Rica, and was later selected for the CONCACAF World Cup U17 Qualifier pre-camp in Florida. He was also selected for the Canada national under-16 Team for the Torneo delle Nazioni tournament in Italy. That same year he was invited to Hungary for trials with Nyíregyháza Spartacus FC and Győri ETO FC in March.[3]
